I am trying to install cygwin on a Win 2003 Enterprise Edition machine. I followed all you instructions but was not able to run the cygwin.
I always get an error in Bash.exe call. My Bash shell is not working. Any help in this regard would be very helpful. I have included the content of the dump file created when bash failed to start. I few points to note: 1. I am using Terminal Services to install cygwin. 2. It is Virtual Machine with windows 2003 installed. 3. I do not see the "sshd" user created on the computer. I really need to get this thing working. Please help me. I have gone through mostly all the posts on the internet about this error and tried all the workarounds but it did not help. I found this post on cygwin forums, which says cygwin does not work on Windows 2003 server. But there are a lot of people using cygwin on windows. http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/msg01489.html I have also attached output of command cygcheck -v -s.
